i'm going to read the link but if it's all baseless paranoia like the bit you quoted then i'm gonna stop real soon.

of course it #seems# like someone is manipulating the stock market, we're human we personify EVERYTHING, even our cars.

It's easy to think that someone is in control and forcing it to do whatever they want, i bet people even think they are in control -just like when gamblers think they're on a 'roll' -they think that somehow the odds for a six sided dice are no longer one in six.

The problem with the stock market isn't that some evil men are ruining the otherwise perfect system, the failure is systemic - the very system is broken, it was never designed to last -most the people who built the system didn't even think about the eventual collapse, if they did then most assumed technology would have already saved us from the doom.

The people on the inside are confused and blinded by the clever words and numbers that create their system, they can't see the forest for the trees - we're going to learn real soon though that the only real way of living is with what you can afford, opulence will once again be reserved for the ultra rich. We'll understand that we can't afford so many wars and so much control, the world will relax a little then it will happen all over again.
